The Structured Credit Handbook

Credit is probably almost as old as civilization itself. Certainly it has greased the wheels of commerce for several thousand years. For example, Hammurabi’s code1 (circa 1790 bce) makes reference to terms of debt repayment. Although commerce has been transformed by successive waves of innovation and development in the past few centuries, it was not until the last decade of the twentieth cent…

SALES FOR STARTUPS

To emerge from the early stages of building a new business, start-ups need to stay focused on two things: building and selling. The first is by far the most important. You can’t sell what you don’t ship, and if it’s not built specifically with the customer’s needs in mind, it’ll be next to impossible to sell even with a great sales system. But as start-ups begin putting a signifi…

You count the number of e-mails you receive while you’re out of the office. …

INNOVATION, STRATEGIC MANAGEMENT AND ECONOMICS: HOW DOES ECONOMIC THEORY EXPL…

Strategic management establishes an operational link between the enterprise’s overall strategy and more specific aspects of management, such as human resources management (HRM).

Health care that implements a “How can we help you today?” philosophy is care that is patient centered, takes full advantage of what has been learned about systems strategies for ma…

Improving Diagnosis in Health Care

The delivery of health care has proceeded for decades with a blind spot: Diagnostic errors—inaccurate or delayed diagnoses—persist throughout all settings of care and continue to harm an unacceptable number of patients. For example: • A conservative estimate found that 5 percent of U.S. adults who seek outpatient care each year experience a diagnostic error. • Postmortem examination re…

Each mode has a separate pre-digital history, each of which is presented briefly in this chapter. Blog and written status updates are descendents of diaries, memoirs, commonplace books and autobiographies. Selfies are descendants of visual artists’ self-portraits, and the quantitative m…
